Still busy with these bandana's and other doggy bits, dont ya just hate glue guns!!!
I'm off now to have a break and play my new game Jewel Quest 3, I just love puzzle games, find them to be quite relaxing but I never keep them for long, I clock them to quick, although this one is gooooood.

Finally catch up!!!

I have been so busy of late..... but at last time to play catch up with you all :)

I recently purchased an industrial straight sewer... I'm back in love with sewing!!! As if I wasnt already lol...( overlocker & major home sewer already) So away I went into the abyss called my work room!


So a teeny tiny request from my groomer Anne ( Dog Workx) for my wee baby boy "Finn" (a Shichon = bichon x shitzu).... to make up some lil doggy hair ties, ribbons & bows for her to sell at dog show's and on her mobile dog van.
She offered me her sewer machine and I jumped at the chance lol... but also told her about a cute bandana design I had made that is not "tied" or bulky but just slips over the collar?
Heres the boy version and below the girly one, & there are many more designs I have made...pant pant....They look so darn good and passers by always comment on them :) ( big head)...



I Had a few days of playing with different designs etc and I am finally happy with it ( for now) and make it in different sizes & many styles and 100% cotton, machine washable, they dont bother the dogs at all and you can damp/or refrigerate them to get them cool :). I will be putting a few up on Trademe to see how they go?

....And while doing all of that I have been reorganising all my haby stuff, fabric etc etc, etc to boot....phew!!! It took many days.....

Then normal work days at work (Tab), kids off to school (praise be to the universe for that!), hubbys business, and finally my own jewellery, teddy bears, hand bags and now doggy stuff? Not a real fan of dressing up animals really, but bandanas are about my lot, my two boys have one each and thats it!!!


I got to finish a peice of jewellery for One's Self!

I brought an Opal Rock from the Thames market, and had to make something with it "just for me!" I based it on a design of necklace that was given to me by a another of my beady friends (pallina's designs)

And finally my lovely wee Angel Pin from a Bead Swap I participate in regulary...


which helps keeps the creativity flowing :)
Anyhow thats me for now ....hopefully it wont so long between posts !
